Poem : Umiam

Image
(A poem on Umiam Lake of Meghalaya ,India) Though today the sky is cloudy, Light and shadow softly play. Umiam ---- around you gathers A fair of trees in green array. A gentle breeze flows calm and sweet, Waves rise with a murmuring sound. My soul finds peace beholding you ---- As though someone lit joy all around. At the call of birds, My heart longs to drift away. My eyes are filled with your beauty --- I wish to return someday. O Umiam , O Umiam I wish to come again someday. -------------- Poet : Dr. Goutam Kumar Mallick

Poem : A World Without War




Those
who  have  to  fight  wars
or
march  to   the   battlefield
don't   know  why  war  is  waged.
Yet
look  at  those  who   know   why,
they
sit  comfortably  in  cold   chambers,
keeping   their  minds calm,
and
occasionally  deliver speeches
mixing  warmth  with   reason.

If   those
whose   fingers   command  wars
had   to
step  onto   the   battlefield,
then  on   this   earth ,
not   a   single   war
would   ever   happen.
